Solubility Chart:

Combination of cations with anions either produce no precipitate, (i.e. the ions do not
combine in solution) or they form a precipitate, leaving less than 1% of the ions in solution.
Soluble combinations are labeled (aq); insoluble combinations are labeled
(s). Some combinations form gases or undergo complex reactions, these are labeled
d, indicating decomposition. Spaces labeled ---- indicate no reference was found.

It is useful to remember that all compounds containing Group I A ions are soluble.
Also, all compounds containing the ammonium ion or the nitrate ion are soluble.
